The IEEE-SA Blockchain Focus Engage with industry stakeholders to recruit for hybrid working groups that equally represent the vested parties who would benefit from the development of standards (ie. Industry corporates, technologists, regulators, and researchers) Collaborate with industry to develop incubator programs and testbeds to provide a neutral learning environment observing successes and failures while enabling add-on innovation Get a comprehensive understanding of the industry s concerns and perceived barriers (process, policy, protocols, regulation, etc) to implementing the technology Educate industry and technologists on how standards could accelerate the adoption of the technology to address appropriate optimization and security problems Identify the potential for standards in the use of blockchain or other distributed ledger technologies combined with other emerging technologies to safeguard digital citizens

Digital Inclusion Through Trust & Agency The Issue: The growing importance of digital identity and privacy in the world of blockchain technologies and customer/patient empowerment of their data in the dawn of diminished trust in security and privacy online Desired Outcomes: Develop consensus with industry executives, tech innovators, and academic researchers to move towards technical and data standards that would deliver the following outcomes: Restore dignity to digital identity and empower citizens to choose with whom they want to transact Have the right to be forgotten and protect oneself when online Establish technical standards for blockchain or other distributed ledger systems that would enable the possibility of secure digital identity Coordination with other activities: Internet Initiative, Cybersecurity Initiative, Blockchain, and AI/Ethics See the full ICAID at http://bit.ly/ieeedigitalinclusion
Realizing the Immersive Future City: Design, Development & Deployment Considerations across The Digital Citizen s Journey via Standardized Technologies & Interoperable Technical Implementations With the evolution towards ubiquitous connectivity of the Digital Citizen, the interoperability and standardization of devices, data, and connectivity are critical for maintaining consistent and persistent states across multiple identity interactions and ultimately, the resultant environment. Workstreams include: 1. Wireless Wearable Testbed (WWT) 2. Wearable to Clinical Data Stream Optimization 3. Expand the Digital Journey beyond PAN/WAN 4. Develop a Blockchain communication protocol with 360 dataperspective 5. Consider Implementation Challenges on a Global Front in a Futurecity Environment 6. Harmonization and coordination with other IEEE and Industry Initiatives See the ICAID at http://bit.ly/digcizic
IEEE P2418 Standard for the Framework of Blockchain Use in Internet of Things (IoT) Scope: This standard provides a common framework for blockchain usage, implementation, and interaction in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The framework addresses scalability, security and privacy challenges with regard to blockchain in IoT. Blockchain tokens, smart contracts, transaction, asset, credentialed network, permissioned IoT blockchain, and permission-less IoT blockchain are included in the framework. Purpose of this project is to develop definitions, protocol, communication etc. for blockchain implementation within IoT architectural framework. The use of blockchain technology for IoT enables decentralized, autonomous communication (peer-to-peer, consumer-tomachine, machine-to-machine) without the need for a trusted intermediary.
IEEE P825 Guide for Interoperability of Transactive Energy Systems with Electric Power Infrastructure Building the Enabling Network for Distributed Energy Resources. The purpose of the standard is to provide guidance on treatment of matters in which the dominant factors are the application, design, deployment and operation of consumer and prosumer energy services behind the meter Leverage the widely adopted IEEE 1547 interconnection standard as well as the multiple communications protocols, this standard will provide the guidance for efficient development of Smart Grid interoperability features needed by transactive energy systems. The guide will: Permit common transactive grid services to be exercised by connected Distributed Energy Resource assets behind the meter. Bring together a broad set of grid interoperability standards that will utilize the underlying IEEE1547 Interconnection conformity as an integration platform while leveraging multiple communications protocols.
